seattle great wheel

21.08.12 | Tara | 4 Comments

I came home to Seattle this weekend for a friend’s wedding and managed to get in some family time visiting all my favorite spots in Seattle – including the glorious flower stands in Pike Place Market- and then took a twirl on the new ‘Great Wheel’ (like the London Eye) which sits on a pier overlooking Puget Sound. When I first saw they were building this I thought it was an annoying tourist attraction. But after riding it, it really won me over.  If you visit Seattle, you have should really go on it! It gives beautiful views of both the city in one direction and the sound in the other and you’re on it for a full 20 minutes. We loved it.

Put my many childhood years of blood sweat and tears / ski lessons (thanks Dad!) to good use and got back on the double sticks this weekend! We’ll see where I take this but in the mean time it’s fun to switch it up and say I do both 😉. It will be hard for me to never be a snowboarder girl 🏂 again and I’m so proud of my skills there, but it’s also nice to stand up properly and not have my bum freeze from constantly sitting on the snow, and get off the chair with ease 🤣. Also cheers to new ski friends (some of my favorite kinds of friends) and isn’t this furry ski hood so cute? All the hot ski girls are doing it @courtwildson 💕! #skihood @pictureorganicclothing

As we know, he’s still got it, and it had been way too long (maybe since early college since I’ve seen Dave live, and at least 10 years since I’ve been to the gorge for Sasquatch, campground is the same, which is comforting!). What a great way to officially end the summer and with great friends too! 🌅@davematthewsband @gorgeamphitheatre
